Case Study: Denver County Fair achieves streamlined volunteer management for 200+ volunteers with VolunteerLocal

Denver County Fair - Customer Case Study

The Denver County Fair is a re‑established, unconventional summer event in Colorado that blends traditional fair attractions with quirky new exhibits. Organizers needed to coordinate more than 200 volunteers each year while replacing cumbersome spreadsheets, paper waivers and phone trees to deliver a smooth visitor experience.

To solve this, VolunteerLocal was adopted — Kristy King, the fair’s Volunteer Coordinator, upgraded to the Discover Plan to centralize scheduling, communication and signups. The platform streamlined volunteer management, made coordination far more efficient, and helped the fair run reliably each year while freeing staff to focus on programming.
